Our Expert Score
Pooking: Billiards City is one of the most satisfying arcade pool games available on mobile. It prioritizes the 'feel' of the game—the physics are buttery smooth, and the ball collisions feel weighty and realistic. Unlike some simulators that try too hard to be professional, Billiards City embraces its arcade roots with creative table shapes and increasingly complex trick-shot levels.
The single-player progression is fantastic. You travel through different parts of a fictional city, each offering unique challenges that force you to master spin and power control. The visual presentation is top-notch, with crisp 3D graphics and a relaxing soundtrack that makes it the perfect 'zen' game to play for ten minutes or two hours. It’s easy to pick up but surprisingly deep when you start getting into advanced cue ball positioning.

Solid game
Wed Sep 28 2022 KatWalk65I like a realistic looking game for pool where you have control over your cue. This game delivers on all fronts while being aesthetically appealing. I like the uneven-edged tables; makes for some creative bouncing off walls which adds to the game play. The best part is that while the game is challenging enough to keep me playing, it's not so hard (like so many bot games in general-we get it, AI you win- which just demoralize you ie reversi!) that I give up. Or to get a cue that works or balls that aren't suspiciously weighted (like golf games) I have to spend 99 cents. Nope. This is pool. The developer deserves your kudos for not interrupting the flow of pool (not like bowling which is basically crack) with invasive ads or gimmicks to get my coins to just play! Thank you very much for putting effort into the design I love the table and am used to the cue sensitivity. If I made any suggestions it might be for some sort of analysis of your best shots and perhaps some diagrams of signature moves would be cool and worth a few breadcrumbsz! There is a dart game that keeps track of patterns and it's always the player playing against him-her-she-it月光
Shoot better pool here
Mon Jul 24 2023 Tika5028 Jan 2021 Congratulations, dear Player! Yes, three cheers and huzzah for reaching level 1020! I say this because the game won't. It just ends abruptly at table 1020. What other reviewers say is true: ball physics are pretty realistic. It's easy to line up your shot and control the force used (Luke). Pooking builds your confidence. You will pocket more balls here than you would on a real table. Tip: try playing in Airplane Mode! Suggestions for the devs: -Please get rid of the oddball tables! They are aggravating and don't belong in the game. -Please provide an option to disable the hand. -Instead of designing 1000 different starting positions, why not simply rack the balls? Let the player choose between 8-ball, 9-ball, and 14.1 racks. -Let the player set up practice shots. -Let the player replay the last position. -And thanks for making a game that gave me many hours of enjoyment! Update 24 July 2023 Table 2222 and still going! The game runs fine and I never see ads. I play on iPad Pro with Wi-Fi turned off. The 'reward' cues don't play any better than the basic one -- they are just distracting. I use the very first cue. My biggest gripe is 'the hand'. It's an UNWELCOME nuisance. How about making a Hardcore Mode option with NO HAND??

Fri Jan 04 2019 SSGT LITTERI like this game because the player is competing against himself by choosing any of the balls to pocket in any order. Hit the cue ball too hard or soft and the result is the same as virtually playing. I think the progression of the number of balls available to pocket causes the shooter to be more aware of how he leaves himself for the next shot although English on the cue isn’t used. I especially like the control that positions the stick. I didn’t notice it at first but once I found it, it really lets the shooter be more precise. The control for how hard you hit the cue ball is nice too...it really lets you shoot soft or softer. The heart that randomly appears in different pockets is asking you to pocket a ball there...any ball. I see it added in scoring but don’t get its purpose...nor do I get how the game is scored. Can’t say I honestly care since there’s only one player. LOL I used to shoot straight 8 ball, calling pockets, rails and kisses...played around 20-30 hours a week. Have not played for a very long time. This game has been bringing me a lot of fun memories. I may just have to find a place to have a cold beer and drag my husband out to play a few games!
Excellent on the verge of epic
Wed May 05 2021 Lashey1234As it is, this game is as challenging as it is peaceful as it is addictive. I don’t know how many levels there are, but I hope there are at least 1000. I’m on 229 If these guys would do a couple things, this game would be legendary: 1. When you miss a shot, you can’t come back from that and get the “crown” for that level. One should be able to make up for it by doing difficult shots like banks and combos and so forth. 2. This game needs instructions. It’s not that it is a difficult game to understand and play, but, for instance, what are the properties of the various sticks that you get as you go along? What do those letters at the top mean? Things like that. 3. One should get extra points for banked shots. 4. When you put a ball in a pocket that has the hand that removes a ball, you should be able to choose which ball is removed 5. After a scratch it’s hard to place the cue ball. Your finger covers it and you can’t see where exactly it’s going to be placed. 6. You should be able to call the pocket and get extra points for making a called shot pocket. 7. Make a level where you have to sink the balls in order (nine ball) 8. Have an “undo” function that costs you a heart or something.

Sun Oct 07 2018 sonnie6teenFrom the English responses to the visual experience, you can actually sense the weight of the cue balls and the density of the table. Pretty amazing. The only issue I had in the beginning was trying to aim the cue stick when shooting from the left end of the table where the trigger sits. If you're not careful you activate the trigger without realizing it and then it cues when you take your finger off the screen. I've since learned to just spin the cue from the center of the table. Same thing happens on the right end... your finger activates the fine adjustment aiming slider while trying to manually aim the cue. I don't understand the progression requirements for each set... I would think you need to pocket each cue numerically, but it seems to reward you for pocketing randomly. I don't know. Wish these things came with instructions. If they are available I don't see them. That's why I only gave 4 stars. People who write these things always leave it up to the user to figure out how to actually utilize their apps. EVERY piece of software should have complete instructions. My first rule in life: If at first you don't succeed... read the instructions!

Tue Mar 10 2020 WomanontheBankEnjoyed this a lot. Suggest taking stick angle away from the whole damned screen as it can often change your angle while shooting. There are enough options elsewhere. Also...your english is backwards. Left english moves the cueball left after the strike, right english moves the cueball right after the strike. And the cueball does not transfer english to the table balls. Certainly the table balls do not transfer english back to the cueball, yet I’ve observed some really weird curves on a cueball third hand that are impossible irl. Just watched the cue ball with no english on it run a ball into the pocket on the short rail, hit that rail, run the length of the table, bounce off the opposite rail, come out what would have been about 8 inches irl and do a 90 degree turn to the left...lol. It did its own masse! Wow. Pool is a game of vectors. The only reason you can put english on the cue ball is because your stick tip is relatively soft and “grabby”, if you will. But hey...it’s a virtual game. Still enjoy it. Definitely need a way to shut off the hand. PITA The crazy, backwards, and unpredictable gamed english is annoying. Clearly the creator of this game never shot a game of pool in his or her life.
Good game but wish it was only reg pool table
Mon Feb 24 2020 5-star graphicsThe game is nice. Theres not enything wrong with it. No bugs, No issues but there is some problems that may not be that important to you because it’s my personal opinion. I don’t like how once your past level 10 they make you play on a weird table that’s shaped like Tennessee lol. I mean the table is really weird because the shape of it makes it look rediculas and then they expect you to do crazy corner shots that are impossible because the tables weirdly shaped. But on the regular shaped table that REGULATES REAL POOL is nice. All I have to say is if you want a good realistic gaming experience that’s about pool mabey consider another game. Very challenging game though. If you want a good quality semi realistic game that’s challenging you got your main game. The reason I think it’s a 5 star game is because of the graphics. At first I donlaoded the game to see if this game was a joke or not but holy crap was I wrong. This game might have the best graphics on mobile I’ve seen in a while. Plz install the game. You’re going to really love it😀🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱
Needs Variety !!!! good game, overdue for an update.
Sun Mar 10 2024 gratefulkelsI love this game, been playing it for over a year. I've gotten a bunch of my friends hooked on it as well. The only thing I would say is that when you get to the higher levels (100s and on), the tables don't vary. The only change between levels is the color of the balls, no more interesting shaped tables which I thought were challenging and fun at the beginning. It would be nice if some of the tables had all of the standard color balls so you could play a game of real pool. I still like to play as a way to pass the time, I love pool and don't always have the chance to play on a table in real life. Just would be fun if the higher levels incorporated some sort of variety in table shape/things to switch it up and add more of a challenge. The new "daily challenge" thing is boring and doesn't make sense.
